This paper investigates the linear stability of reacting mixing layers with special emphasis on the existence of multiple unstable modes. The governing equations for laminar flows are from two-dimensional compressible boundary-layer equations. The chemistry is a finite rate single step irreversible reaction with Arrhenius kinetics. For the incompressible reacintg mixing layer with variable density. A necessary condition for instability has been derived. The condition requires that the angular momentum, not the vorticity, to have a maximum in the flow domain. New inflectional modes of instability are found to exist in the outer part of the mixing layer. For the compressible reacting mixing layer, supersonic unstable modes may exist in the abscence of a generalized inflection point. The outer modes at high Mach numbers in the reacting mixing layer are continuations of the inflectional modes of low Mach number flows. However, the generalized inflection point is less important at supersonic flows.

It is known that the maximal invariant set of a continuous iterative dynamical system in a compact Hausdorff space is equal to the intersection of its forward image sets, which we will call the first minimal image set. In this article, we investigate the corresponding relation for a class of discontinuous self maps that are on the verge of continuity, or topologically almost continuous endomorphisms. We prove that the iterative dynamics of a topologically almost continuous endomorphisms yields a chain of minimal image sets that attains a unique transfinite length, which we call the maximal invariance order, as it stabilizes itself at the maximal invariant set. We prove the converse, too. Given ordinal number ξ, there exists a topologically almost continuous endomorphism f on a compact Hausdorff space X with the maximal invariance order ξ. We also discuss some further results regarding the maximal invariance order as more layers of topological restrictions are added.

The T-stress of cracks in elastic sheets is solved by using the fractal finite element method (FFEM). The FFEM, which had been developed to determine the stress intensity factors of cracks, is re-applied to evaluate the T-stress which is one of the important fracture parameters. The FFEM combines an exterior finite element model with a localized inner model near the crack tip. The mesh geometry of the latter is self-similar in radial layers around the tip. The higher order Williams series is used to condense the large numbers of nodal displacements at the inner model near the crack tip to a small set of unknown coefficients. Numerical examples revealed that the present approach is simple and accurate for calculating the T-stresses and the stress intensity factors. Some errors of the T-stress solutions shown in the previous literature are identified and the new solutions for the T-stress calculations are presented.

In this paper, the electromechanical displacements of curved actuators using laminated composites are calculated by finite element method to design the optimal configuration of curved actuators. To predict the pre-stress in the device due to the mismatch in coefficients of thermal expansion, the carbon-epoxy and glass- epoxy as well as PZT ceramic is also numerically modeled by using hexahedral solid elements. Because the modeling of these thin layers causes the numbers of degree of freedom to increase, large-scale structural analyses are performed in a cluster system in this study. The curved shape and pre-stress in the actuator are obtained by the cured curvature analysis. The displacement under the piezoelectric force by an applied voltage is also calculated to compare the performance of curved actuator. The thickness of composite is chosen as design factor.

Density currents formed by buoyancy discharges from rivers are numerically studied using non-dimensional two layer model including Coriolis acceleration, bottom stress, interfacial friction. Some typical numbers such as Froude number, densimetric Froude number and Kelvin number are obtained and some characteristic scales are defined as a result of non-dimensionalization of the governing equations. Besides the Coriolis effect, the configurations of bottom topography, bottom friction coefficient and interfacial friction are found to significantly affect the propagation of the warm water plume. Frontal position can fastly propagate in the case of large density difference between the two layers and small interfacial friction. Left side boundary current is easily formed under the small interfacial friction. With large Kelvin number, both right and left side boundary currents are formed. Wave-like disturbances and eddies are easily formed under the high Froude number.

This paper presents an Orthogonal Neural Network based on orthogonal functions and applies the network to nonlinear system control. The Orthogonal Neural Network doesn't have the problems of traditional feedforward neural networks such as the determination of initial weights and the numbers of layers and processing elements. In this paper, Orthogonal Neural Network is modified already introduced one by input transformation. The results show that the modified neural network has the better performance than existing one and performance of controller using this network is good.

This paper presents experimental studies aiming at evaluation of structural behaviors of RC (Reinforced Concrete) beams externally strengthened with taper ended CFRPs(Carbon Fiber Reinforced Polymers). Experiments are performed with RC beams having different numbers of CFRP layers and length of each layer. The beams are subjected to four point-bending with simply supported condition. Test results of taper ended CFRPs and non-tapered CFRPs are compared and the better strengthening effect is observed from tapered ended CFRPs.

This paper is aimed to investigate behaviour of vortex in 2-D step cavity with high Reynolds numbers$(3.2{\times}10^{3},\;10^{4},\;3{\times}10^{4},\;5{\times}10^{4}\;and\;7{\times}10^{4})$. The SOLA algorithm which is MAC type was adopted to solution method computing the flow field on irregular grid. In case of $Re=7{\times}10^{4}$ flow behavior is steady bu periodic unsteady sinusoidal fluctuation of local velocity and kinetic energy is found for $Re=10^{4}$ Continuous movements of small eddies in the secondary flow regions are discov-ered for $3{\times}10^{4}$ Generation of eddies and their active migrating behavior are detected over $Re=5{\times}10^{4}$ resulting in complete unsteady and non-linear flow characteristics Furthermore a typhoon-like vortex(TLV) appears intermittently and rotates along the separation regions and boundary layers.

This is the first recorded case of Sarcoptes scabiei in a Korean female raccoon confirmed by light and scanning electron microscopies. Grossly the skin on the abdomen head and legs was markedly thickened with alopecia and encrustation. histopathologically skin showed epidermal hyperplasia with spongiotic degeneration and parakeratosis. Ectoparasites were present in superficial and deep epidermal layers. Small numbers of leukocytes predominantly neutrophils were associated with the parasitic infestation. Scanning electron microscopy examination of affected skin scraping demonstrated round to oval parasitic mites measuring approximately 180 -250 x 220 - 350 um in size. The mites possessed four pairs of legs of which the two anterior pairs appeared relatively long with unjointed stalks while the two posterior leg pairs were rudimentary. these morphological features were consistent with Sarcoptes scabiei.

In this study we calculated the flowfields around the axisymmetric bodies in the rarefied gas regime by using the DSMC. A flat-ended cylinder was selected as a representative axisymmetric body and the gas used for all calculations was nitrogen. With zero angle of attack, an increasingly rapid rise in density and the effect of shock waves near the flat-ended face were examined. And on the cylinder surface velocity slips and boundary layers could be observed in the results. Larsen-Borgnakke model was used for the energy redistribution in inelastic collisions. And by considering all internal energy modes, the distributions of translational, rotational and vibrational temperatures were plotted. The calculations were peformed for various Knudsen numbers, Especially the rotational temperatures calculated for a case were compared with the experimental results. And the simulation results show good agreements with the experimental ones.
